    Modeling Helical Gears for CMM

    This is bit of a solid modeling or inspection question, which way do you model gears/worms for the most accurate output? We are outputting gears for CMM inspection programs and I am a little confused in my typical modeling style as to which way would produce a more accurate gear profile for...

    SW Macro - How to reference $PRPSHEET info in VB??

    Hello All, I am writing this macro to help handle our drawing releases throughout the company I work for. We have issues with Solidworks assemblies (and the occasional drawing) not being the most stable things in the world so I have "pieced" this together to save clean copies of our work at...

    SW2013 - Circular reference workaround - Power Chain.

    Hello, I am building a power chain (ex. Igus) as a sub assembly for work and I am able to get the links of the chain to fit to a curve in a static form. I can draw from this various configs to get my machine stroke limits in several different positions. What I'd like to be able to do is make...

    Does this functionality exist in MathCAD?

    This may be of some help. The green cells are a-e and k is represented in the trend-line on the graph.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=b401c8eb-2d66-4263-b177-576f3871ca46&file=E_001.xlsx

    Does this functionality exist in MathCAD?

    I have a set of variables, five to be exact (a,b,c,d & e) and a single solution k. I am trying to find a way to acquire the list of operations in which said variables form the solution k. a=68.0388555 b=2.424937 c=0.0508 d=4 e=4 k=-1.59080982659757

    Does this functionality exist in MathCAD?

    I am trying to recreate an equation in mathCAD from an algorithm formed in in Excel. I know the general format of the of the equation (C*e^-kx), I know x is the variable and I know the constant C and all of the factors that contribute to the formation of k but I don't know how each input...

    Mathematical Impossibility?

    Thank you. This gets me closer to what I am looking for but is there a way to get these answers to converge. As I change the guesses the answers jump around. I am not looking for a exact match to the original 5,10,15,20 pattern but some way to get them close or even averaged between the two...

    Mathematical Impossibility?

    Is this scenario really mathematically impossible or am I entering my information incorrectly into MathCad?
